Katy Perry’s latest single Woman’s World has faced harsh criticism from music critics, being described as a “monumental catastrophe” reminiscent of “reheated” Lady Gaga.
Released with a flashy music video featuring Perry in patriotic lingerie, the track has been widely panned in prominent publications.
Pitchfork, for instance, slammed the song as a failed attempt at a women’s empowerment anthem, suggesting Perry’s grasp of feminism is superficial at best.
The scathing reviews have labeled the single as “dispiriting” and “abysmal,” indicating a disappointing comeback attempt for the pop star.
Prominent publications have not held back in their assessments of the track.
According to Shaad D’Souza of Pitchfork, the single “defies all sense of taste” and is “too dispiriting to even approach camp. It’s abysmal.”
The criticism has been widespread, with one reviewer expressing that listening to Woman’s World left them feeling progressively less enlightened.
